fox

31.

Nioh has been working overtime for the past few days, and he didn't relax until he had almost dealt with the work at hand.

And most of the matters were slowly handed over to Sasaki in the past few days.

For this reason, he hasn't met Atobe since he had a party with Li Haida's friends that day.

Of course, there is also correspondence.

On Monday of the new week, Nioh and his boss handed in his resignation to the director.

"Ah, one walk away two."

The director is a man in his 40s with gold-rimmed eyes and looks kindly.

"Where are you going?" He opened the resignation letter and read it, asking.

"Atobe Group." Nioh leaned against the table with his body bent, twisting his braid with one hand.

"That's good, that's great, you young people are so nice, you really need to go outside more often."

The director accepted the letter of resignation.

And when they learned that the two of them were leaving their jobs, everyone in the design department felt sorry.

Nioh was packing up his things at his desk, and Sasaki came over.

"Senior, the people in the department proposed a gathering, so you should go too!" He puffed his cheeks and said loudly.

King Ren thought for a while, and there was nothing else to do today, so he agreed.

night.

Atobe returned to the villa and walked straight towards the swimming pool.

The butler caught the clothes and tie he had taken off from behind, and asked anxiously, "What's the matter, master?"

Did you suddenly become interested in swimming this late at night?

Atobe didn't seem to hear his voice, and threw himself into the pool.

After he was leaning against the pool, the butler approached: "Young Master, are you in a good mood?"

"Of course." Atobe pushed back his hair, showing his eyes determined to catch the prey.

The design department has been established, and the recruitment of new employees has begun in the past two days.

More importantly, this matter itself was approved by his father.

The fox has entered his circle, and he can be one step closer to his goal.

The housekeeper understood and was happy for him.

"Master, there is a phone call."

Another maid ran over with her phone in her hands.

Atobe took a look and raised his eyebrows.

It was Yukimura.

"You're looking for me, huh?"

The person over there chuckled: "Of course, after all, I heard that King Ren is going to your company."

"Are you going to tell me to treat him well?"

If so, it sounds like the worry of the natal family.

And Yukimura didn't deny it either.

"What would you do if one day you found out that Nioh was not who you thought Nioh was?"

Atobe froze for a moment, then frowned.

Yukimura's words were a little strange.

But the tone is very serious.

Atobe did not give an answer in the end.

So after the call ended, both parties had different thoughts.

Yukimura didn't mean to remind Atobe of anything deliberately, but he just felt that if Nioh stayed with Atobe for a long time, he might not be able to hide it for long.

Just like when they were accidentally discovered by a few of them.

It was during a break in the World Championship, and a group of people had a dinner party to celebrate.

At that time, it was inevitable to touch the wine.

So when the few of them sent the drunk Nioh back to the room, an unbelievable scene happened - Nioh turned into a fox.

After the fox sobered up, he frankly confessed the matter.

Fortunately, Kirihara wasn't there at the time, otherwise they probably wouldn't be the only ones who knew about it.

It was the first time Nioh encountered alcohol, and he didn't know that he would unconsciously become a prototype when he was drunk.

Presumably the prototype would be more comfortable.

Knowing that he can't touch too much alcohol, Nioh rarely touches alcohol after work, which relieves them a lot of worry (during that period, Sanada sent a private message almost every day to remind him not to relax).

Yukimura smiled helplessly as he recalled what happened at that time.

Atobe, on the other hand, took the not-so-flashy question seriously.

If Nioh is not who he thinks he is... then take the time to find out.

Atobe came out of the pool and went into the bathroom.

Speaking of which, he really noticed Nioh during the national competition.

32.

The match between Nioh Masaharu and Fuji Shusuke almost became a duel between the two kings of Seigaku.

Atobe did not expect such a person to play tennis like this.

Phantom is Nioh's tennis ball.

So when he was U17, he found Nioh, intending to join forces to become the so-called strongest combination.

But at that time, Atobe did not expect that he would work so hard.

Even Tezuka's calmness was imprinted in his bones.

It was a perfect illusion. For this reason, Atobe also abandoned his gorgeous style of play, only wanting to live up to Nioh's efforts.

After that, they switched identities once at Worlds.

At that time, Atobe had already realized that he had some extraordinary care for Nioh.

I'm just not sure if it's pure appreciation, or can I call it liking.

After finishing the World Championship, they hardly saw each other again, but Atobe would occasionally pay attention to some news about Nioh.

After graduating from university, Atobe's father suddenly wanted Atobe to marry the daughter of another group director.

Atobe immediately thought of Nioh.

He suddenly became clear.

Yes, that's like it.

33.

Atobe changed into a nightgown, and just as he walked out of the bathroom, he heard the phone ringing again.

This time it was King Ni.

"Hello, are you a friend of Senior Nioh?"

It was another man's voice.

Atobe paused, raising his eyebrows.

"What's up with him?"

"Senior had some wine, can you come and pick him up?"

Hearing that he agreed, the other end sent the address.

Atobe changed into casual clothes, picked up the car keys and walked out while wondering if King Nio appointed him to contact him?

I'm a little concerned.

The meeting place for several people was at a sushi restaurant near the company.

When Atobe arrived, family members or friends of other people also came one after another.

Sasaki, who called him, got into a taxi himself.

When Atobu got off the car, he saw Nioh standing quietly at the door, like a child waiting for his parents to pick him up and go home.

"Aren't you drunk?" He walked over and saw that the man looked sober, he didn't seem to be drunk.

"It's just a little uncomfortable, puri." King Ni closed his eyes and put a hand on his shoulder.

Atobe helped him into the passenger seat, and specially adjusted the back of the seat so that he could lie down halfway.

King Ren thanked him, then closed his eyes, wondering if he had fallen asleep.

He didn't open his eyes until he was downstairs in the apartment, but he didn't look as awake as before, and his face was flushed.

Probably drunk.

Naturally, Atobe couldn't let him go upstairs by himself, so he sent Nio to the room, put him on the bed, and planned to find some honey water.

But his eyes stopped when he touched the fox's den on the side of the bed.

So Nioh's house really has a fox?

But why didn't I see it?

With a hint of doubt, Atobe turned around and found the refrigerator.

Without honey water, he walked back to the room with a bottle of milk in a can.

"Dangdang!"

The unopened jar fell to the floor and rolled to the foot of the bed.

Atobe stood at the door, his pupils constricted: "King Ni?!"

He clearly left for less than 2 minutes, and he didn't see King Ni coming out of the room, but there was no one on the bed.

It seems to have disappeared out of nowhere...

But soon Atobe noticed a small bump under the thin quilt.

He stepped forward quickly, lifted the quilt and saw a white fox.

fox?

When covering the quilt for King Ni just now, there was no trace of the fox.

And now Nioh is gone, and the fox appears...

A ridiculous idea flashed in Atobe's mind.

He was about to veto this incredible hypothesis when he suddenly remembered the phone call with Yukimura.

If Nioh is not the Nioh he thinks... Could it be the fox?

Atobe calmed down, sat down beside the bed, and carefully picked up the half-closed fox.

The eyes are also turquoise.

He suddenly thought of the fox who had been in his house for nearly a week.

It really looks more and more like...

It's just that King Ni's mind is a little confused now, and he looks a little dull, not as clever as when he was in his house.

So, suddenly snatched the housekeeper's mobile phone twice, broke the bathroom door of his house, left the milk cat at his house, left the bandage behind and left quietly...

And what I saw that day, the inflexible wrist.

Everything makes sense.

Atobe narrowed his eyes and realized that if this was King Ni, he would be able to accept it.

There are always surprises...

34.

The next morning.

In a half-dream and half-awake state, King Ni rolled over and lay on his side, feeling a splitting headache.

He moved his limbs and realized that he seemed to have accidentally turned into a prototype again, so he pulled the quilt and turned back into a human form.

It's just that the symptoms of headache have not been relieved by half.

He only vaguely remembered that it became the prototype when Atobe left after returning to the room.

Thinking of this, he felt relieved and planned to sleep for a while.

The tail was touched by something.

"Don't touch my tail..." After saying this in a hoarse voice, King Ren was about to put away the tail he forgot to take back, but he woke up suddenly.

Someone behind him?

Niwang quickly turned his head to look behind him, and his eyes touched a big face.

Atobe's big face.

The author has something to say:

Yukimura: I reminded you just in time

I wrote about Nioh's situation during their doubles before, and this chapter will fill in the uncle's.

So it's almost over when you lose your horse~
